The D&#038;D multiverse is composed of planes that are layered on top of each other. The Astral Plane connects many parts of the universe as a sea of endless nothing, where thought guides your movement. It\u2019s also where the Spelljammer campaign setting takes place, with ships that sail the Astral Sea. In Baldur\u2019s Gate 3, the Astral Plane plays an important role in the story, especially in the Githyanki storyline. As such, you visit it on several occasions and get to witness its strange wonders for yourself. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players have yet to figure out one curious thing about the Astral Plane. When you visit it, a colossal skeleton wraps around the stage, but who does it belong to? As discussed by fans online, in D&#038;D, the Astral Plane is where the bodies of dead deities can be found. This is because gods can be killed in D&#038;D, which caused the events of Baldur\u2019s Gate, with Bane, Bhaal, and Myrkul all being slain during the Time of Troubles when they were turned into mortals. Unfortunately, there are no direct clues as to the god\u2019s identity. It\u2019s just a giant skeleton with a strange ruby-encrusted crown on its head, which doesn\u2019t narrow it down. There was once no shortage of dead gods in the Forgotten Realms, but the shift to 5e revived most of them. There are one or two candidates for the skeleton, such as Kiputytto, the Demigoddess of Disease. It could also be a god from another campaign setting due to D&#038;D\u2019s connected multiverse. It\u2019s also possible that the developers just wanted a cool-looking giant skeleton wrapped around an area in the game. The Astral Plane is the ideal place to do this, as it\u2019s the known graveyard of the gods, and finding giant floating corpses there isn\u2019t unusual.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Baldur\u2019s Gate 3\u2019s Astral Plane still has a huge unsolved mystery Larian StudiosThe Astral Plane is one of the most mysterious locations in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3, which might be why its biggest (literally) mystery has gone unsolved.
